Echolight, a global innovator in bone densitometry, announced that NASA is using its proprietary REMS (Radiofrequency Echographic Multi Spectrometry) technology to monitor bone changes in a human bedrest study and to assess the effects of unloading on bone mass given the paramount importance of Bone Health in space too..

Echolight是骨密度測定領(lǐng)域的全球創(chuàng)新者，宣布美國宇航局正在使用其專有的REMS（射頻回波多光譜）技術(shù)來監(jiān)測人體臥床研究中的骨骼變化，并評估卸載對骨量的影響，因為骨骼健康在太空中也至關(guān)重要。。

Through a simple ultrasound scan of axial anatomical sites such as the spine and femur, the REMS innovative technology measures bone density and microarchitecture without using the radiation of traditional x-ray scans. This radiation-free technology allows scientists to perform repeated scans for monitoring bone health over time.

通過對脊柱和股骨等軸向解剖部位進行簡單的超聲波掃描，REMS創(chuàng)新技術(shù)可以在不使用傳統(tǒng)x射線掃描輻射的情況下測量骨密度和微結(jié)構(gòu)。。

In addition, the ability to automatically exclude artifacts commonly present with other densitometry procedures yields a highly reliable diagnostic assessment..

此外，自動排除其他密度測定程序中常見的偽影的能力產(chǎn)生了高度可靠的診斷評估。。

'Echolight is pleased with this additional milestone in the US adoption of REMS devices, where the diagnostic system for the unique, personalized and patient-centered assessment of bone health has registered a very high interest among the US medical community sharing the intent to reduce fragility fractures,' explained Sergio Casciaro, Echolight S.p.A.

Echolight S.p.a.塞爾吉奧·卡斯基亞羅（SergioCasciaro）解釋說：“Echolight對美國采用REMS設備的這一額外里程碑感到高興，該設備的獨特，個性化和以患者為中心的骨骼健康評估診斷系統(tǒng)在美國醫(yī)學界引起了高度興趣，共同致力于減少脆性骨折。”。

Prof. Aenor Sawyer, director of UCSF Skeletal Health Service and of UC Space Health, reported 'Echolight technology provides a number of potential benefits for possible use during spaceflight missions including its portability (the unit is the size of a small suitcase), fast scan time of under 10 minutes, edge analytics, and the ability to scan frequently with no harmful radiation effects.

加州大學舊金山分校骨骼健康服務中心和加州大學空間健康中心主任埃諾·索耶教授報告說，“回聲燈技術(shù)為航天飛行任務中的可能使用提供了許多潛在的好處，包括其便攜性（單位大小如一個小行李箱）、不到10分鐘的快速掃描時間、邊緣分析以及在沒有有害輻射影響的情況下頻繁掃描的能力。

NASA is currently unable to assess the bone loss of each astronaut occurring in spaceflight and make real-intime adjustments to their countermeasures. This will be increasingly important on longer missions such as those to the Moon and Mars, and REMS could potentially provide this critical in-mission information.'.

美國宇航局目前無法評估每位宇航員在太空飛行中的骨質(zhì)流失情況，也無法對他們的應對措施做出真正的及時調(diào)整。這在月球和火星等較長的任務中將變得越來越重要，REMS可能會提供這一關(guān)鍵的任務信息。”。

Echolight was established in Italy with head office in Lecce, and in 2020 opened its offices in the United States. Since then, its sales network has grown to more than 40 distributors and several hundreds of satisfied customers across the world who have adopted the innovative R.E.M.S. technology for assessing the bone condition of their patients..

Echolight成立于意大利，總部位于萊切，2020年在美國開設了辦事處。從那時起，其銷售網(wǎng)絡已發(fā)展到全球40多家分銷商和數(shù)百名滿意的客戶，他們采用了創(chuàng)新的R.E.M.S.技術(shù)來評估患者的骨骼狀況。。

Created as a spin-off of the Italian National Research Council, Echolight is at the forefront of medical innovation, introducing new cutting-edge solutions to contribute to human wellbeing. It has been awarded all the standard certificates: UNI CEI EN ISO 13485: 2016, Quality Management System UNI EN ISO 9001: 2015, CE mark, FDA clearance, and other major certificates worldwide for innovative solutions considered as the best practice in bone health for personalized medicine..

Echolight是意大利國家研究委員會的附屬機構(gòu)，它處于醫(yī)學創(chuàng)新的前沿，引入了新的尖端解決方案，為人類福祉做出貢獻。它已經(jīng)獲得了所有標準證書：UNI-CEI EN ISO 13485:2016，質(zhì)量管理體系UNI-EN ISO 9001:2015，CE標志，F(xiàn)DA許可以及全球其他主要證書，這些證書被認為是個性化醫(yī)療骨骼健康最佳實踐的創(chuàng)新解決方案。。
